Groesbeck

Groesbeck, the seat of Limestone County, was established in 1871 on the Houston and Texas Central Railroad and named for one of its directors. The town grew as a railroad stop, trade center for area farms and ranches, and a source of oil, gas and coal deposits. Annual events include an arts-and-crafts show in March, the Limestone County Fair in April and the Fiddle Festival in May.
